          Seven years ago I sat in my kitchen about mid-afternoon-evening one day. I don't remember if it was a school day or not, but I do remember being more nervous than I ever had been. You were probably distracting me from playing some stupid game or something, I don't know, but I do know that I was on a messenger with you and this was the day that my life changed and took a turn for the better.

          Back then, I wasn't a good kid. I skipped school, hung out with the wrong people, dated to many people to count, but you. You always stuck close to me, and though you were mean to me sometimes, I still called you my best friend.

          We hung out together all the time. I always went to your house on weekends and it seemed that we were constantly talking, always together in some form be it texting, calling, or taking on Yahoo. We were practically inseparable.

          But something strange happened that day, whatever time it was. Whatever I was doing then, it doesn't matter because like I said, this is the day my life changed. This is the day that I practically dropped everything for one thing... and that was you.

          Now I know this is corney, and I know this is the single most sappiest piece of work I've done in a long time, but this is for you, for us. Because that day. That single most important day of my life, is when I sent you a crappy little paint picture that simply said “I like you”, and at the time, my poor little 15 year old self was scared to death because I didn't know what you were going to do.

          I was scared that you would reject me, and that I was going to lose my very best friend. At the time I didn't realize that without you I'm nothing. Well that's certainly the case now days isn't it? Some days I get so lonely that I can hardly stand it and I wonder, how did I do that seven years ago? It seemed like I was always alone.

          Something changed though, the moment that you replied to me. I was trembling, crying even because I was so nervous, so terrified that you would hate me that when you sent that same file back to me, it just, I can't even explain it. I was happy, nervous, scared, and I didn't know what was going to happen after that.

          When you agreed to go out with me, I don't know what I was expecting. We became much closer after that and I never let you go. I don't think I ever will either. Without you, I'm nothing. You bring light to my day, hell you bring life to my writing. I just couldn't do it without you behind me, and constantly helping me. Without you I would be in such a bad place, and both of us know it.

          Below is a small token, a memento, a gift, and something to make you smile. Something that we can hold onto. I wish I could've found the original, but I think this one is just as good, and it may even possibly mean more. Either way, I love you and I always will because there's no one better fitted to my weird personality than you. We make an amazing team and we forever will.

With all my heart (and not surprisingly tears),
Alexander J. Akoda
